"Radio and video, from satellites in space... There's a whole new technology, behind the human race".... "Computers in our homes, at our jobs and in our cars.... When THE MEEK INHERIT THE EARTH, WE'LL BE GOING TO THE STARS!"
Not bad for 1984!
Speaks also of: pay to view TV .... "genetic engineering...to improve the human mold"... cell phones..."hi tech surveillance, on the streets and in the stores..."
Even if you can't get with the lyrics, the electronics are superb ~ synth drops sound like liquid space ships splashing electromagnetic therapy. The handclaps pop off over 808s and 909s and hey, we even get a sax solo pushing out the last minute or so.
But I think anyone who paid attention to these lyrics would be a bit fascinated to say the least. Were these guys RAND / CIA agents by day, rappers by night? WOW.
